Hi guys, i have a few mods done to my car and it seems to me that im climbing up the rpms very fast and would like to know up to were i can raise my rev limiter safly. i've seen 7200 but i wanted to know if you can go higher than that on the non-rev motor.

 

um.......

what mods are on your car?

 

I have long tube headers, afe ram air intake, bassani true dual, and mrev2 with 1/2 spacer

 

i rly need help cuz i wanna raise my rev limiter as much as i can safly

 

Why not just see what the car feels like before you decide to blow up the engine. Be safe for a while, you can make changes after a week or 2 of driving like the car is now.

 

what is your desire for higher than 7200? You won't be making power that far anyway... is there something specific you are trying to accomplish?

 

i wanted to know because im going to do a final drive install and i wanted to know if i could go higher than 7200 so i can do 4.08 gears

 

you don't need to go higher than 7200 for 4.0 gears... I take it you are MT and must be trying to make it through 1/4 mile without an added shift? Otherwise I still don't understand the desire.

 

Huh? If u don't make power past 7200 why try it?

 

yea, i am a mt and want to know if it would be better to just get the 3.9 with 7200 rpm or i would be fine with the 4.08

 

And btw how r u redlining at 7200 on a non rev-up?

 

with an ecu utec i upped my rev limiter

 

i am sorry but that is retarded. you obviously have no idea what you are doing, not only in a sense of what you are doing to your car, but also in the sense that you do not understand the physics applied to what is occurring in your engine. i was expecting a built motor and head at least but you are running stock internals and valve train components? and you want to increase your rev-limit even further?

 

damn I shift at 6500 and I am boosted. it would be nice to go to 7K

 

higher revs (particularly on this specific application) do not equal more power... that is not the way engines work.

 

The upgraded JWT springs and shims are only good til a max of 7200 RPM.

Your car stops making power at approx 6200 RPM. Why would you want to rev to 7200?

It's all fun and games until you float a valve... tune away!

I see fial in your future.

 

^lol, but so true, dyno graphs prove it. unless you have a built motor with cams and a crazy good tune. its not worth it

 

ARP or RevUp rod bolts.

 

I have the none revup... Sometimes I do wish I could stay in the gear a little longer... but you stop making power at 6200 or 6500RPM w/e it is... you really don't need too. If you do though.. I wouldn't go past 7K

 

so 7200 would be the furthest taht i could push the motor atleast until i do internals?
